Just depressing

[wheatbeer]

Had planned to strafe and save my planes

[gamerman01]

Man alive…

Sorry to see that - I mean, everybody wants above average luck, but not THAT far above…
We’ll see how the German strafes go, I guess…

[gamerman01]

You were probably planning to land one on Holland, so now you can’t drill the loaded transport either?

Man, that UK1/I1 combo will be nearly impossible to overcome unless some extreme luck comes your way soon…

Saw right after getting lucky in Holland, that you can still sink the loaded transport - you don’t need Holland at all, I guess…

But the way this is going since game 2, you might worry about getting shot down by the transport

[wheatbeer]

landing in Algeria takes away options for G3, so I really wanted Holland  :|

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy

Out of respect for you, I will keep bringing my A game  :-P

(And I wrote this BEFORE seeing your most recent post  :-o)

NOW what happened??

[gamerman01]

Hmmmmm

Stalin is elated
Churchill is close to despair……

[gamerman01]

4 fighters down in 97 and a bomber out of range of London…

Hmmmm… I wonder what your odds on London will be…

not nearly as good as they should be, I know that (all the planes the dice took from you)

[arathorn]

Sometimes I wonder if the Yugo dice are riggerd. Lol

I can’t tell you how often I’ve lost 4-5 inf G1 and then again with I1 and sometimes even G2.

haha
